WE REALISE Theresa May has a lot on her plate at the moment.

The ill-judged snap election left her in a much weaker position than at the start of the year.

The deal with the Democratic Unionist Party may have seemed like a good idea at the time but is, in our view, fraught with risk.

It is now facing a legal challenge which, if nothing else, will increase scrutiny of the agreement at a time when Mrs May needs to focus all her energies on uniting her increasingly fractious party.

Then there is the immense shadow being cast over everything by Brexit.

She has her work cut out.

But, the prime minister has to take on board comments by the Wales’ first minister, Carwyn Jones, about involving the devolved administrations in the discussions about Brexit.

The shape of the agreements made over Brexit will have immense implications for Wales.

Mr Jones says he is hugely concerned about the future of the farming industry and he is right to air those fears.

Our view is that Brexit will impact on all walks of life in Wales and it is far too important for us not to be closely involved every step of the way over the coming months.
